Small Wind Generator

Portable Small Wind Generators

When describing what a small wind generator is, we
are usually
referring to wind generators for your home or RV that typically sit on
a
tower or sometimes roof mounted. There are very small generators
available (see image below) that, while they wont supply your utility
needs, can charge up your batteries. Like your own portable personal
wind power!

Aside from providing energy for homes, these wind
generators are also reliable battery chargers for RVs and
mobile homes as they
are portable and easy to install. You wound not want to find yourself
stuck in the middle of nowhere and not have a fully charged
battery, right? The time and cost of having these
batteries charged or replaced is very substantial and running them when
they are very low can shorten their lives.

Wind generators can provide a large amount
of energy for RVs
without the expense and exhaust of noisy generators. Most of these
charging systems are made to easily integrate into the electrical
network and charge the batteries automatically and quietly. With small
wind generators, power is produced directly relating to the wind speed
and this energy is converted to electricity.

Small wind generators are very portable
and convenient. They
can be used to power homes especially during power outages or if there
is no available power grid. Though you can opt to have a wind turbine
installed in your home, the cost can be quite pricey.
However,
when you check the cost-benefit ratio of having an alternative energy
source in your home, or RV, you would be happy to discover that over
time there will be a big pay back in energy savings.

There are also Do-it-yourself wind turbine kits
that may cost less that
those readily built which can cost at least $3000. If you are up to the
challenge of building your very own wind generators, you can
find
home wind
power kits with a list of needed materials that you can
complete from your local hardware for only $200!

If you think about it, building your own wind
generators using
kits and guides is a far better idea than having an expensive wind
turbine especially if you don’t have a budget. It is more practical and
it maximizes the savings you can get from wind energy.

More and more people are realizing the advantage
of using
alternative energy and microgeneration play a big role in combating
climate change and global warming, securing energy supplies and
alleviating fuel poverty as well as creating sustainable communities.
Micro wind generators are much cheaper and can give you
significant savings over the years. Aside from these, newer models and
designs are built to be versatile and useful even for RVs
mobile homes and
boats for the charging of batteries. These newer models are quieter and
more efficient than their older counterparts.
